Is the subway running? TTC Status shows live delays, closures and slow zones on every Toronto subway line, with the stations you ride first. EVERY LINE, LIVE See Lines 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 on one map. Delays, shuttle buses and closures are drawn on the stretch they affect, and slow zones get their own marking, so a slower trip never looks like a delay. Also shows TTC bus and streetcar alerts. YOUR STATIONS FIRST Save the stations you ride. Only their platforms count, so trouble elsewhere stays out of your way.
